背景:
- 大動脈狭窄症 (AS) は,代謝症候群と炎症に関連した重度の心血管疾患です.
- 乾燥眼症 (DED) や表面性角膜症などの眼表面疾患は,炎症反応の増大も伴う.
研究 の 目的:
- 大動脈狭窄症 (AS) とその後の目の表面疾患,特にDEDと表面性角膜症との関連を調査する.
- DEDや表面性角膜症の発症の危険因子であるかどうかを判断する.
主な方法:
- トリネットXのデータベースを利用した遡及的なコホート研究.
- ASと非ASのグループに分けられた421,253人の患者が登録されました.
- DEDと表面的な角膜症のリスクを分析するためにコックス比例ハザード回帰を用いた.
主要な成果:
- AS群は,非AS群と比較して,DED (aHR=1. 375) と表面性角膜症 (aHR=1. 286) の発生率が著しく高かった.
- DEDと表面的な角膜症の両方の累積的な発生率は,AS患者で有意に上昇しました.
- リスクはほとんどのASサブグループで高かったが,例外はアジア人群であった.
結論:
- 大動脈狭窄は,乾燥眼疾患および表面性角膜症を発症するリスクの増加と関連しています.
- これらの眼球表面疾患のリスクはASの持続時間と正の相関関係があるようです.

Glaucoma: Overview
745
Glaucoma is an eye condition characterized by increased intraocular pressure that damages the retina and optic nerve, leading to irreversible blindness if left untreated. The human eye has various components, including the cornea, iris, pupil, lens, and optic nerve. Aqueous humor is secreted by the epithelium of the ciliary body in the posterior chamber and flows through the trabecular meshwork and canal of Schlemm, maintaining normal intraocular pressure. The trabecular meshwork and the canal...

Aortic Regurgitation II: Clinical Features and Diagnostic Tests
52
Aortic valve regurgitation (AR) occurs when the aortic valve fails to close properly, allowing blood to flow backward from the aorta into the left ventricle. This backflow can result in two distinct clinical presentations: acute and chronic AR, each characterized by its own set of symptoms and physical findings.Acute Aortic RegurgitationAcute AR presents with a sudden onset of severe symptoms. Patients typically experience profound dyspnea (shortness of breath), chest pain, and signs of left...

Open Angle Glaucoma: Treatment
557
In open-angle glaucoma, the iridocorneal angle remains open, but the trabecular meshwork becomes stiff, slowing down the outflow of aqueous humor. This causes a buildup of aqueous humor in the anterior chamber, leading to a sudden increase in intraocular pressure. The treatment for open-angle glaucoma focuses on reducing the elevated intraocular pressure by either decreasing the secretion of aqueous humor or increasing its outflow.

Angle Closure Glaucoma: Treatment
669
Angle-closure glaucoma, or closed-angle glaucoma, is an eye condition where the iris bulges out and blocks the iridocorneal angle, resulting in a buildup of aqueous humor and increased intraocular pressure. Immediate medical attention is necessary due to the sudden onset of symptoms. The treatment for angle-closure glaucoma includes short-term and long-term approaches. Short-term treatment involves using eye drops like pilocarpine to lower intraocular pressure by increasing aqueous humor...

Mitral Stenosis I: Introduction
34
Mitral Valve Stenosis (MVS) is a heart condition where the mitral valve narrows, impeding blood circulation from the left atrium to the left ventricle. The etiology and pathophysiology of this condition are multifaceted, leading to a cascade of cardiovascular complications.Causes of Mitral Valve StenosisRheumatic Heart Disease: It is the main cause of mitral valve stenosis, particularly in developing nations. This condition arises from rheumatic fever, an inflammatory illness resulting from...

Aortic Regurgitation I: Introduction
36
IntroductionAortic regurgitation is characterized by the backward flow of blood from the aorta into the left ventricle during diastole and arises from the improper closure of the aortic valve. This condition results in left ventricular volume overload and can stem from both acute and chronic etiologies, each contributing uniquely to the disease's progression and symptomatology.Acute and Chronic CausesAcute aortic regurgitation often results from events that suddenly impair the integrity of the...
